At New York Comic-Con, I caught up with the MythBusters themselves to chat about the special episode and what we’ll be able to see. They test if an axe or a gun is better to use on a horde of zombies, and see what they have to say about 200 extras showing up, getting into makeup and doing their best zombie walk. Where was my invite for that?

Grant, Kari and Tori all had one unanimous pick for the celebrity they want on their team if/when the zombie apocalypse and that is Merle himself, Mr. Michael Rooker who also guest stars on this special episode. See why they can’t get enough of this “badass” from his zombie skills to his drinking stories. Both very important!
